Another phase of the court contest at
Bismarck is given by the correspondent
of the Minneapolis Evening Journal,
who says:
The council is to-day in as novel q
fight as ever graeed the halls of Dako-
ta hall OF wisdom and the cause OF it ali
is the same old bill for the removal OF
the United States court from Yankton
to Mitchell. Two days ago the Yank-
ton forces had the strength and passed q
resolution calling the bill from the hands
OF the committee which was friendly to
Mitchell. The committee refused to re.
port the bill back yesterday, and at noon
to-day the Mitchell crowd is on top,
Weieer, of Valley City, who went back
on Mitchell under an agreement that
his grain and warehouse bill should be
passed was knocked over the ropes yes
terday by Mltchell's friends, who called
up the bill and killed it. This shook
his friendship for the Yankton men who
were unable 10 save him and before
the legislature convenes this afternoon
he will be out of the city. This means
that the men who have been and are his
natural allies but whom hs forsook on
the trade have whipped him into line
and he will leave the city before
to-day's session begins that he may
not be compelled to openly violate his
pledge with Yankton nor vote against
his friends.
Another interesting feature OF this
fight is that Foster, of Spink county
has been won over to the Mitchell crowd
by bill to remove the supreme court
from Deadwood to Redfeld and
| if Sheldon of Day county who been
wavering on this question since the bill
was introduced can be held firm the bill
removing the United States court from
Yankton to Mitchell will pass the coun-
oil this afternoon, and as it has already
passed the house it will only need the
signature of the governor to make it q
law.

Yesterday the oath of Office was ad-
minstered to Governor Louis K. Chusch
by Chief nstice Tripp, in the presence
of Acting Governor Mccormack, Ex- Gov
ernor Pierce the supreme court, the two
houses Of the Legislature and the COM
mon herd. The new governor made a
short address IN which he gave form to
the customary promise to conduct the
affairs of his Office in the interest of the
whole people. If he accompiishes this
much hs will be great Improvement
upon his republican predecessor, whose
administration has been one so
clearly sectional that the eouth
will never have any pleasant recollec-
tions of his incumbepcy. AS everything
new under the sun is interesting, Dako-
ss's new governor will be the object OF
close attention from the public until his
line of policy is developed and there is o
general understanding of the course of
his administration. There is profuse
promise that Governor Church will prove
faithful to his great trust, and if this
promise is fulfilled he will find himself
cordially sustained by the people with.
out any partisan prejudice from his poll
tical opponents. Dakota needs broad
guage governor and if it has secured
him in Mr.. Church no fault will be found
with his politics.

The BEGINNING OF the End.

The beginning of disease is q slight debility
or disorder of some of the vital organs, the
stomach, the liver the bowels usually.
There are dyspeptic symptoms, the liver ia
troublesome, the skin grows tawney and un-
healthy looking, there are pains in the right
side or through the right shoulder blade. The
climax is often an utter prostration of the
physical energies, perhaps a fatal issue But
If the difficulty ID met in time with Hostetters
Stomach Bitters, which is always effective as q
remedy. anG it should De resorted to at an early
stage, 1here will be no reason to apprehend
those injurious subsequent effects upon the
system often entRiled by entirely cuIed dis
eases. Far better is it, also, to employ this safe
remedial agent I'M fever and ague, and other
maiarial complaints. than quinine and other
effectual for time, ruin the stomach and i'm
pair the general health.

this year give their maximum yield of
crops OF all kinds. 1t comes as tradi-
tion from the former Indian occupants
of this land, a ID has been demonstrated
in the experi ence OF white settlers from
the opening of civilization here, that q
winter which fills the mountains with
snow is followed by summer OF abnnd-
ant rains. Evaporation from the noun
btaln regions supplies the foothills and
the plains with moisture. The present
winter has filled the mountain reservoirs
with material for profuse evaporation.
This supply is not exhausted by the first
touch OF summer, but is held in store to
be drawn upon III response to the de-
mands of the producing sections. The
lower levels give us the spriag floods,
saturating soil and atmosphere with
moisture for the seed time. Higher
attitudes yield later in the season to the
influences of solar heat and produce
what is known Id Missouri river parlance
as the June rise, which lasts into July in
good growing seasons. After this the
sun climbs the mountain sides, slowly
releasing the moisture there con-
gealed. Transforming it into
vapor and sending it off over
plain country to descend again upon the
maturing crops and effect the fullest
development. So it happens that when
the mountains are covered from base to
apex with the wintery deposit and the
foothills and plains lie buried in snow
the conditions for growing summer are
all fulfilled and farmers may plant with
full confidence in an abundant harvest.
Through all these years OF traffic and
travel on Dakota's great natural high
way the river man has read in the size
and flow of the Missouri the forecast of
the navigation season. Heavy spring
floods and big tune rise ensured good
river until late in the fall and all bids
for heavy transportation contracts were
based upon winter and spring conditions,
and calculations never failed.
The Dakota farmer can ns accurately
forecast the conditions of coming
growing season by taking into account
the mountain conditions at this season
of the year. The mountains are now
laden with snow and ice and the plains
of the river slope are buried. We are
certain to have heavy spring flood and
an extensive June rise. From the same
sources whick are to produce this food
and this rise we are
to be favored with abundant
rains during the period Of summer dis.
integration and consequent evaporation
These signs have never failed.
There are apprehensions of disastrous
oyerHows along the Missouri when the
mighty river bursts its 10y bonds and
receives the swelling torrents from IT'D
extended slopes. These resnlts are all
dependent upon the manner in which
the river opens. Ii the first break comes
at the mouth of the Yellowstone (Which
happens probably four times out OF ten,
and the ice in the river below remains
intact until crowded out by the rush
from above, the bottom lands will be
flooded and devastated by water and ice
If the river opens OF its lower extreml-
ties first it will carry off the food with
out damage to adjacent property.

As an introduction to an extract from
the Press and DakotaIan. the Yankton
Herald says:
The Herald has heretofore neglected,
uninrentiona!ly, however, to call atten-
tion to the following winch recently sp-
peared in the official organ of our demo-
cratic city council. 1t squints decidedly
in the direction of an endorsement of
the proposed prohibition city ticket in
opposition to the regular republican.
The Press and Dakotaian has not
known that any prohibition ticket has
been or is proposed. ALI we haye said
upon the subject has been in behalf OF a
city government which will represent
the true interests of the property owners
and business men OF Yankton-a gov
ernment which will not legislate against
the opportunities advanced for bettering
the business condition Of our city and
one which will take advantage of every
opportunity to advance public interests.
We do not care 80 much about the
politics Of such municipal government
or about its position upon questions
foreign to business advancement. In
this emergency We believe that capacity
for effective government should be the
test and that all factions should unite
upon the common platform of Yankton's
material advancement and economical
and sagacious government. During the
coming year we will be called upon to
desl with large questions and we want
men in administrative positions who can
grasp the situation and labor Intelligent.
